[can-talk] Censorship

Over the past couple of years I have tried to respond to various comments by 
others - sometimes a bit tongue in cheek - like suggesting we needed elastic 
walls for growing collections & display needs (& of course there are 
actually wall systems that do this).

And  my comment yesterday originally was blocked.

My point is that even though I feel swamped by the ever-growing demands of 
"paperwork" - reporting etc, it is great to have a "conversation" with 
colleagues in a wide variety of museums across the country (including the 
doily and machinery ones!). I like to see those queries, (& will follow this 
with one of my own) but a little chatter is good too. It's human.
